Beloga

Beloga aggregates data from multiple disconnected applications (e.g., Slack, email, project management tools, document stores) into a unified view using API connectors and webhook-based real-time synchronization. The system maintains a normalized data model that maps heterogeneous schemas from different sources into a common representation, enabling cross-app queries and unified search without requiring users to switch between platforms.

Beloga uses semantic search or embedding-based retrieval to find relevant information across all connected applications using natural language queries, rather than requiring exact keyword matching or manual navigation. The system likely embeds documents, messages, and structured data from each source into a vector space, then ranks results by semantic relevance and recency, surfacing context from multiple apps in a single result set.

Beloga generates automated summaries, highlights, and insights from aggregated data across connected applications using LLM-based analysis. The system likely batches recent data from multiple sources, sends it to an LLM with a prompt tailored to research or team workflows, and returns synthesized insights (e.g., 'key decisions made this week', 'unresolved blockers across projects', 'trends in team communication'). Results are cached or scheduled to avoid redundant API calls.

Beloga provides a framework for connecting external applications via APIs, webhooks, or pre-built connectors, with a schema mapping layer that translates heterogeneous data models into a normalized internal representation. The system likely uses a connector registry (similar to Zapier or Airbyte) with templates for popular apps, and allows custom field mapping for less common integrations. Data flows through a transformation pipeline that normalizes timestamps, user IDs, and other common fields across sources.

Beloga monitors connected data sources for changes and generates notifications or alerts based on user-defined rules or AI-detected anomalies. The system likely uses webhook listeners to detect events in real-time, evaluates them against rule engines or LLM-based anomaly detection, and routes notifications to users via email, in-app alerts, or Slack. Rules can be simple (e.g., 'notify me when a Jira ticket is assigned to me') or complex (e.g., 'alert if multiple projects report blockers on the same dependency').

Beloga provides a shared workspace where team members can view, discuss, and act on unified data from connected apps. The workspace likely includes a feed or dashboard showing recent activity across sources, comment threads for collaboration, and quick-access panels for each connected app. Users can pin important items, create collections or projects, and share context with teammates without requiring them to access the original apps.

Beloga manages permissions for accessing unified data, likely inheriting or mapping access controls from source applications. The system probably supports role-based access control (RBAC) with roles like 'viewer', 'editor', or 'admin', and may enforce source-level permissions (e.g., if a user lacks access to a Jira project, they cannot see tickets from that project in Beloga). Permission inheritance and conflict resolution across multiple sources is likely handled via a centralized policy engine.
